I'm taking a hunch on this but I would imagine they are not unique, I only say this because I've seen some DB serial numbers with the same year and batch but different models. Also It was not unusual for Diamond Back to use an old frameset for another bike, e.g, a Senior Pro Frameset built up as a Silver Streak to meet demand.

3 - Year (1983)

B - Batch

0084 - 84th build of that year

Only the geometry will prove which model it is.
